Already received a reply from Dr. Cormen:

"I’ve been tweeting out differences between 3e and 4e here: https://twitter.com/clrs4e"

Also, from the description on purchase pages (Amazon, etc.): " New for the fourth edition • New chapters on matchings in bipartite graphs, online algorithms, and machine learning • New material on topics including solving recurrence equations, hash tables, potential functions, and suffix arrays • 140 new exercises and 22 new problems • Reader feedback–informed improvements to old problems • Clearer, more personal, and gender-neutral writing style • Color added to improve visual presentation • Notes, bibliography, and index updated to reflect developments in the field • Website with new supplementary material "

The added color is almost enough to want me buy the new editon imo, I can only get so much out of the b&w graphics.
